On the first day of yoga session along with Ayurvedic medication and after giving the same for experimental group and on the same days for the control group also without giving yoga and Ayurveda. The sample size of experimental group is 25 and control group is 24.At the end of the study we observed a significant reduction in pain, disability and insomnia in experimental group and there was an increase in pain, disability and insomnia in the control group.
